No government or shadow front-bench post on file for Mr Angus MacDonald — most MPs never hold one, so this is the normal state for a backbencher, not a gap in the data.

Written questions to government

No written questions on file for Mr Angus MacDonald yet — this only covers what Hear, Hear has fetched so far (see Written questions), not necessarily every question Mr Angus MacDonald has ever tabled.

Business costs (IPSA)

£234,363.34 paid out to or for Mr Angus MacDonald across 290 claims — combining every financial year on file, not just the current one — covering office costs, accommodation, travel, and bought-in/temporary staffing. This does not include Mr Angus MacDonald’s permanent staff’s salaries — typically the biggest single share of an MP’s real costs — which IPSA only publishes once a year, after the year closes, as one aggregate figure, never as individual claims. Some categories (especially travel) are reported by IPSA as one whole-year total rather than itemised by date — marked “Aggregated” below. See MP expenses to filter this to a single year.

Staffing — £161,780.59 (6 claims)

Who funds these groups

Confor: Promoting Forestry and Wood — about £23,250.50, 1 group
Marine Energy Council — about £5,250.50, 1 group

Read this carefully: funding is declared by the group (often to pay for a secretariat that runs it), not paid to Mr Angus MacDonald personally, and declaring it is a legal requirement rather than a sign of wrongdoing. This only covers groups Mr Angus MacDonald is a listed officer of — ordinary members aren’t published. Amounts are Parliament’s own figures; where it gave a banded range the midpoint is used, so totals are approximate. Funders are grouped by name, so the same organisation spelled very differently may appear twice.
